Watches - another OCD problem
-
Swapped out the black alligator OEM strap on my wife’s 11639 WG for this aftermarket strap from Epoch. Seems like pretty good quality. It’s a really dark navy blue, almost black, which looks great on the white gold.
It has quick-release spring bars, which is kind of nice and definitely saves a little time. Somehow, even with that, I managed to install both sides of the strap upside down the first time.
️ Kind of weird because the last time I changed it, I got it right.Unfortunately, the first straps they sent were too short. This one just barely fits on the largest adjustment. I think there’s been a little bit of a language barrier or misunderstanding when it comes to the sizing, but at least this one works.

@bwscott the non-sapphire cased model is also stunning. The price increase is quite a lot though.

@Anesthetist Price increase indeed, $80,000! This is the budget option, I think it’s going for around £800. -
@bwscott maybe I misunderstood the press release but I believe there’s another MRG in $6000 range

@Anesthetist
You’re right. This is the ‘mid range’ at 6k…!

@Bridger yep the one that comes with it. Prefer it to the bracelet.

Ah, you have a newer model @1WayTrip. Looks different from my rubber strap.
I like both the rubber and the bracelet. When I got my first MM300 I wasn't sure about either, but after a little bit of time - I realised I should never have doubted the Seiko designers. I think they're perfect for the watch.
